    中法艺术家旅居交流计划的最初发起者为里尔造型及视觉艺术中心(Centre d'arts plastiques et visuels de Lille) 和里尔市政府（Ville de Lille ）本活动还得到了北部-加莱省 ( Nord-Pas-de-Calais), 北部-加莱省文化事务局(DRAC Nord-Pas-de-Calais)，法国文化 (CulturesFrance)，里尔大都会-城市社团杂志 (Lille-Metropole-Communaute Urbaine) 的大力支持，以及弗莱诺 (Le Fresnoy) 国家当代艺术工作室，杜伯雷 (Doublet), 世界旅行者（Voyageurs du Monde)，爱格斯特咨询所（Eagst Consulting), 别样说法（Autrement dit）周报，里尔大学广播电台（Radio Campus Lille)等的热情参与。

    里尔与中国最初的联系是从2004年，马晗，伊灵，和凌飞三位艺术家应里尔艺术中心的邀请旅居法国开始的. 随后，2005年，让威尔·雷诺,弗朗索瓦·玛蒂纳斯和奥利维·杜邦来到北京进行旅居创作。

    作为该活动的继续，彼禾汤·加德安，艾伦沙·格德法·德蒙彼内和马尼伦·汝兹·维达将于2008年秋到北京电影学院完成他们的个人创作。2008 年十一月一日至十一月九日，他们会参加北京今日美术馆举办的展览"逃离-Escape(s)"。今日美术馆是一处在当代艺术界富有盛名的展览场所。

    2009年，里尔及敦刻尔克(其他地点正在考察中)将举办这三位法国艺术家2008年北京之旅的创作展。

    北部-加莱省的艺术家在中国的旅居和参展活动是一项长期的交流计划。法国艺术家下一次的旅居将在上海，2010年(2012年，于广州或香港，计划正在筹备中) 。中国艺术家朱炯，龚林和白伊洛将于2009年被邀请到里尔。

    艺术家简介

    彼禾汤·加德安--摄影-录像-装置  《影像房间》

    我的工作着重于用自然的原料来表现世界，我总是从自然界摄取我的肖像源。

    我们人类与自然之间的关系,与自然的代表之间的关系,以及与自然的驯服之间的关系影响到我们的花园以及坐落于城市中心的公园的历史和哲学。千百年来，更甚于艺术 家的，无论是那些城市规划师，建筑师，或者园林设计师等等，都从中国园林中不断 汲取着灵感（参见布洛涅 - 比扬古（Boulogne Billancourt）区，阿尔波特  - 卡恩（Albert Kahn）的花园）。

    北京那些同时也是休闲散步和冥想的场所的绿地，公园，花园和动物园等都是我将要 探寻的领地。我的那些档案式的照片和影像作品将从内部，以百科全书式的方式来展现 这个世界潭等。

    艾伦沙·格德法·德蒙彼内

    --电影-录像-装置-行为艺术 "以失踪者爱情的名义"

    在我的作品中，使用了不同的艺术表现手法，比如行为艺术，影像艺术，戏剧艺术和音乐等等。我并不是想单纯解释人性，而是想让人们感受到悸动的人性。

    我喜爱和不同的人接触，喜爱行走到各个地方，我把不同图像和不同语言联接在一起，站在艺术与社会学的临界点上诠释人们的所见所闻。

    "逝去的爱"的艺术表现手法十分有张力，该作品运用电影写作手法和社会试验艺术，主题围绕着人性如何直面自己的逝去。作品呈现的人文景物描述了法国北部人们的生存状态。

    在北京期间我会继续这个主题的研究，我将悉心观察周遭的人与事，在此过程中，我还将利用行为艺术，绘画艺术和影像艺术，来表达人性这个主题。

    马尼伦·汝兹·维达-- 绘画 

    是那些痕迹，时间遗留在建筑物上或者物体上的疤痕吸引着我。 绘画中令我感兴趣的，是它通过描绘的物体达到深层背景的一种真实。画布是一种材料，这也正是它区别于那些幻象表现的,确实的真实性所在。

    在敦刻尔克这个工业港口，马尼伦·汝兹·维达的兴趣变得越来越广泛：从造船厂， 大仓库，筒仓，直到那些带有被时间侵蚀，被物品撞击的痕迹的建筑工程。作为工业场 景的爱慕者，马尼埃尔希望能在作品中反映出北京，一个既要努力协调工业发展又要 尽量降低城市污染的大都市的痛苦演变。

    马晗--绘画、装置

    艺术家马晗是里尔-北京艺术交流的老伙伴，生活创作于北京。他曾在2004年被邀请到里尔进行旅居创作。如今活跃于当代艺术领域。

    Escape[s]

    2st - 9th November 2008

    Bertrand Gadenne

    Elsa Gaudefroy-Demombynes

    Manuel Ruiz-Vida

    Present their first exposition in China at the Beijing Today Museum

    Invited artist : Ma Han

    Building 1, N°32 Baiziwan Road - Chaoyang District, Beijing - 100022

    8610-58760600 6000

    Links between China and Lille were established in 2004 with the residency at the Centre d'Arts de la Ville de Lille of the artists Ma Han, Ling Fei and Yi Ling. These links were continued in 2005 with the creative residency in Beijing of Xavier Géneau, Fran?ois Martinache and Olivier Dupont.

    In the autumn of 2008, Bertrand Gadenne, Elisa Gaudefroy-Demombynes and Manuel Ruiz-Vida will, in their turn, leave for Beijing in order to develop an individuel project at the Beijing Film Academy and, from October 1st to November 12th, will present "Escape[s]" at the Beijing Today Art Museum in the Chaoyang district, a prestigious venue dedicated to contemporary art in the new business quarter of Beijing.

    The residency and exhibition are part of a long-term project for exchanges and for residencies by artists from the Nord - Pas-de-Calais region of France in China. Future French residencies will be in Shanghai in 2010 (and either Canton or Hong Kong is projected for 2012). The Chinese artists Zhu Jiong, Gonglin and Bai Yiluo will be welcomed to Lille in 2009.

    The work of the French artists in residence in Beijing in 2008 will be exhibited in Lille and Dunkerque in 2009 (with other possible sites under discussion).

    The artists

    Berrand Gadenne

    - photography - video - installation "The Image Room"

    My work is centred on a representation of the World based on natural elements, and I have always drawn my iconographic sources from natural spaces.

    Our relationship with nature, and with its representation and domestication, touches on the history and the philosophy of parks and gardens, notably those situated in urban contexts. Many artists, whether urbanists, architects or landscape gardeners, have been inspired over the centuries by Chinese gardens (an example being the gardens designed by Albert Kahn at Boulogne-Billancourt).

    In Peking, my research territory will be places of vegetation, the parks, gardens and zoos which are also areas for walking and for thoughtful contemplation. My work as an archivist for photographic and video images will unfurl within the confines of these encyclopaedic environments ; the lake park of north Beihai, the Park of the Ritan Land, the Sky Park of Tian Tan, Dragon Park, Taoranting Park, the zoological park and Yuyantan Park

    Elsa Gaudefroy-Demombynes

    - cinema - vidéo -installation - performance

    "Out of love for those who are gone"

    This interdisciplinary project, "work in progress", is at the crosswoads of performance, theatre, film and music, encapsulating a dramatic conception.

    "Out of love for those who are gone" is conceived as a form of exploration, between cinematographic writing and social experiment centred around the human condition confronted by its own disappearance : tragedy with personal or collective origins.

    This work revolves around two economies and two temporalities :  performance and documentation.

    The project will continue in Peking by researching new testimonies on the same theme, in association with performance and by taking into consideration all the possibilities opened up by the wealth of new encounters. 

    Manuel Ruiz-Vida - painting

    I am inspired by the traces, the stigmata, of time on buildings and objects.

    What interests me is the reality of painting which moves the object of representation to the background. The canvas is material, and that is the true reality, in contrast to the illusion of a simple representation.

    Manuel Ruiz-Vida developed his interest for naval dockyards, hangars, silos and all that is marked by the wear of time in Dunkerque and its commercial port. In Peking, Manuel Ruiz-Vida, as a lover of industrial landscapes, will try to bear witness to the evolution of a city which has difficulty reconciling industrial development with a reduction in pollution levels.

    Ma Han - painting - installation

    This Chinese artist, who lives in Peking, is the historic partner of the artistic exchanges between Lille and Peking. Invited to a residency in Lille in 2004.Now, he is actively at the domain of contemporary art.
